Our Christmas workshop is finally here!

If you are coming along to the workshop, I hope you are ready to make LOTS of cards for Christmas! And if you are not joining us and you have stumbled across this blog by chance, I hope you enjoy having a look at the cards we will be making!

For this workshop we will be focusing on 3 main stamps sets. The first of which includes this fabulous Christmas tree, the set is called Special Season and it enables you to make lots of quick and simple yet effective cards. Perfect if you have a lot of friends and family to make cards for.

The next set we we will use is Snow Day. I have to confess, I fell in love with this little snowman. I think he is great for making children's cards. Here are a couple for you:

And here's the stamp set.

You don't have to use the Snowman on every card. This set is really versatile, you can make festive garlands too, like I have done in the card on the left in the next image.

Finally my absolute favourite stamp set that we will use in this workshop is festive flurry. You get a sneak peek of it in the picture above but it truly is a stunning set. Judge for yourself.....

It comes with a matching set of dies so that you can cut your snowflakes out perfectly and easily every time.

And a few cards to get you ready too.....

There are many, many more cards for you to make at the workshop. These are just a few glimpses of what's in store!

If you are coming to workshop, you may find it useful to bring along any Christmas greetings stamps you have. If you have a black ink pad such as stazon, that would be good too. It needs to be a permanent dye ink. Also versamark ink will be used frequently so please bring that if you have it. I will have some to share, but it will be easier for you if you have your own to hand.
